BRITISH GRAIN TRADE.
Latest Mark ct Q Qu0tatiOns-Injury
7t- From DROuth Reported.


LONDON, August 15.-The Mark
Lane Express in its review of the
British grain trade during the past
week says: "With the exception of a
few slight showers the drouth has not
been broken. In the greater part Of
the kingdom the days have been fif-
teen degrees hotter, and the nights
are autumnal. Vegetation appears to
be giving out. Wheat deliveries have
been numerous and values continue to
decline. If the weather keeps dry
lower rates appear to be inevitable.
WHEAT SALES.
The sales of English wheat during
the week were not reported. The av-
erage price in London for the week
ending Tuesday was 34s. on 504 quar-
ters. The corn trade is depressed, and
some new barleys have been offered.
Their color has been go d and their
quality various.
FOREIGN TRADE SUPPLIES.
In the foreign wheat there are no
fresh features, and values are grad
ually declining. Interest appears to
be confined to native crops, or rather
the condition in which it can be de-
livered. The outcome of the whole
corner in San Francisco is not yet de-
termined, and there lis therefore an
accumulation of California wheat in
Liverpool which threatens trade.
Prices have declined Is 3D. to Is Cd.

PHILADELPHIA, August 15.-The mys-
terry which has been thrown around
the departure from this city of Emil
Schoenberg, known as "the Silver
King" who has for some time past
been supposed 70 be the partner Of
John N. Betz, millionaire brewer, in
some of his enterprises, is gradually
been cleared up, and the startling
statement is made that
HE is A FoRGER
To large amount. Betz, as regards
his relation to the firm of Betx g.
Schoenberg, says that it never existed
and authorized a statement in which
he says that when the Germani&
Brewery was projected, he went into
it as stakeholder and Schoenberg
also took $175, 900 worth Of stock.
SHORT OF READY CASH.
Schoenberg did not have this amount
in ready cash, and therefore, he bor-
rowed money from several banks Of
this city, giving as security variety
OF paper which was then thought to
be good, but it has since transpired
that the signatures and Inducements
of some of the papers were forged.
USES HIS FRIENDS NAMEs.
Betz's name was used on some Of It
both as treasurer of the Germania
Brewing Company and as an individ-
ual indorser of notes. The name of
X. Nestor also appeared upon some Of
the paper without his approval or con-
sent
AN EFFORT TO EvADE TROUBLE.
These forgeries came to light before
Schoenberg took himself out Of the
way, and to extricate himself from
the corner in which he found himself
he transferred part of his stock to
Betz as collateral to protect the frau
dulent paper. 1t now transpires that
there are
MANY MORE VICTIMS
and that Sehoenberg's indebtedness
will amount to about 100000. The
margin between Schoenberg's assets
and forgeries will be abo 500, 600.
